10mm WW2 European forces French command stand.

French command stand, with attached anti-tank rifle, as no one else needs them!


Bone jaw, my nome is...


'Allo! 'Allo!


The red top on their kepis is there, honest!


Two higher officers, an RTO, a staff car and an anti-tank rifle


The whole French force*.

 
Finishing off the French starter set https://www.pendraken.co.uk/nbkc-fr-nfrench-starter-army-4278-p.asp
Just need a company commander stand now (and many other things).

Knew there was a stand of French infantry missing, so here it is based up.







Infantry


Get them lads!






Anti-tank guns, mortars and machineguns




Added suport is always good!


Badly sited mortars?


Truck and Panhard armoured car




Which way are we going?


Doesn't matter, the armoured car has a reverse driver!
 
Pendraken GRV136 Panzer IIC done and added to my Western European theatre Germans - what a model


Can see where the idea for the Dalek came from


Trundle trundle


It looks soooo cool, thank you Leon


Love the hatch details


Dakka


Now some French
SOMUA S35s


Looking mean


Really impressive figures, must not put off painting these for so long


Back view


Quite a tank


Here they come


Renault R35s


Not sure a one man turret was the best plan


Here we go


Back view


Allez


Waiting for trouble


Mean and moody, might risk the Panhard next.


French infantry


Ready...


Good news, they're on home soil


Few more squads to go after this


Come up quite well


Moving on


Hold the line, they'll never get through here!
 
Panzer IVd

Drat, did not notice the flock!





And motorcyclists!






 
 
Two more Panzer IIIE


Menicingly on the prowl


Maybe we will go this way


And we HAD to have some recon!




Which way round does it go?


Here we go here we go

For the European theatre, my first two Panzer IIIE are done, and the Balken Cross is tiny and on. They will do for 1940 theatres nicely. Will add allied forces to face these soon.



Clank clank


Trundle trundle...


Rear end


Just as an experiment, the German camo never shows up on black and white photos of the time, so just to try it out..

Yup, it works.

6mm Pony Wars commission for a friend.

Friend asked me to do his Pony Wars kit now that Baccus have taken it over.  Painted quite a lot of dismounted native foot too! Top view Singles Why is there a Squeeze song going through my head. Sneaking up on the cavalry Back view Heading out Pairs The Indians send signals from the rocks above the pass The cowboys take position in the bushes and the grass The squaw is with the corporal, she is tied against the tree She doesn't mind the language, it's the beating she don't need Threes She lets loose all the horses when the corporal is asleep And he wakes to find the fire's dead and arrows in his hats Or something like that Here we go Sixes Top view Left view Snipping or sniping 8s Lefts Backs Right Missed two bases of US cavalry Going that way Ready to go Scouting This is going to end badly for the cavalry   [img]https://i.imgur.com/k1iK9pV.jpg[/img] Mounted US troopers for Keith.

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain. I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them   Mimic from Bad Squiddo Gribbly Sushi? Catch of the day!   Another Grenadier 1984 from Brian's collection - possible Flesh Golem? Pants! Quick job, but fun   TT Combat Halfling adventuers, a barbarian, a fighter, a ranger (with squirrel), a mage, and a bard (with bagpipes) Rough bunch Distancing themselves from the Bard! Fireball!   Really random. Converted GW 1990s halfling on a Ral Patha sheep - a ram raider! There are quite a few more of these to do, but this one fell off the lead pile while I was looking for something else. He ...

Legion Imperialis 8mm - Civitas ruins boxed set.

Terrain box (Civitas ruins) painted up Honestly took me longer to build it than it did to paint! But there may be a reason for that Someone needs a word with their structural surveyor! I mean, the build quality here is awful. At least the marines will have somewhere to hide It's about an A3 of ruined stuff It's been trashed Comes with a lot of scatter  The rest of the club was doing it, so I had to do it!  Looking through the various Legions from the Horus Herasy, I decided... Nope. Don't like them. Stick to what you know. 'Stick 'Em In The Eye - It's the Emperor's Pointy Sticks' So, seven years after I painted the 'Emperor's Pointy Sticks' in 6mm, GW have released Legion Imperialis in 8mm. Marine booster pack painted up, group photos! Mixed bag About 100 extra points on table!  "Did I miss the photoshoot?" *FACEPALM* These are the ones I've be...
